Thanks St.Ack; I am not sure if this is right. Currently I set hbase.cluster.distributed to be true, and set the HBASE_MANAGES_ZK=false; the environment is running now. Both the hbase master and region server are running on the same machine. I think from the definition, this is also a "pseudo-distributed" mode.
I think the doc should add: true: fully-distributed with unmanaged Zookeeper Quorum (see hbase-env.sh) and pseudo-distributed mode with umanaged Zookeeper Quorum. -stanley -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Stack Sent: 2011年4月12日 12:23 To: [email protected] Cc: Shi, Stanley Subject: Re: can i start teh hbase in pseudo-distributed mode with external zookeeper? 2011/4/11 <[email protected]>: > Hi Harsh J, > > I thought it was that way, but according to the description of the " > hbase.cluster.distributed", for pseudo-distributed setup with managed > zookeeper, this value should be set to "false". > I think there's some more difference between the real-distributed mode and > the pseudo one. > Just to say that the doc. could be wrong. In this case it does seem pretty explicit that the flag be false. If I look at code, a distinct regionserver daemon will not start if this setting is false. Please let us know what works so we can fix the doc. Sorry for inconvenience caused, St.Ack
